97 ranger 3.0 cranks but wont start, iac?

hey everyone, back again. i have a 97 ranger 3.0 automatic with 182K on it. was running fine yesterday, today it wouldnt start. it will crank but wont fire. i did get it to start a few times so i could move it back in the driveway a little but just barely and it turned off. if i give it a lot of gas it would start and then shut off. now it wont do that. i took off the iac valve and cleaned it and let it sit for a while in carb clean a few times but that didnt help. it looks original and has the oem part number and says 97 on it. since the truck has 182K im guessing it is time to replace anyway but i hate throwing money at problems so i just want to see what you guys think? i checked all connections to sensors and hoses and everything looks good and it has half a tank of gas. thanks!
